South to North: A Prison Guard at the Beginning

Chapter 217: Examining the Dead

"Bring a gun and lend it to Yuan Mu!" Director Jiang pointed at Yuan Mu.

"Oh, okay, no problem." Xiao Liu nodded, then turned and came to another security guard. After talking to him for a few words, the security guard pulled out a pistol and a magazine from his waist and handed them to Xiao Liu.

"Student Yuan Mu!" Xiao Liu walked up to Yuan Mu with the pistol and handed it to him.

Yuan Mu took the gun and looked at it. Wow, it's really an old thing, a German-made Mauser pistol, also called a box gun. Of course, it's also called a box gun. The names vary from place to place, but this gun is still good because it is an automatic pistol.

Because its magazine can hold twenty rounds of bullets, it is also called the Twenty-Shot. After fiddling with it for a few times, Yuan Mu took the gun in his hand and inserted the magazine into his back.

At this time, Director Jiang was explaining something to the teachers and soon came over.

"Let's go, Xiao Yuan!" Director Jiang also drew out the Type 54 pistol from his waist and pointed it at Yuan Mu.

This era is still quite chaotic. Many teachers brought guns to the training camp in case of any accidents.

Yuan Mu nodded and then followed Director Jiang to Shunping Commune. Director Jiang originally wanted to bring two more people, but for the safety of the classmates, he finally decided to take Yuan Mu with him.

Besides, the situation is still unclear. What if the gun went off accidentally? This is not impossible. Shunping Commune has a militia team. Anything is possible.

When they walked into the village, they found that the whole village was brightly lit and they could faintly hear the noise of the villagers.

The two looked at each other and then ran over quickly. The closer they got, the more they could hear, including crying.

"Dad! Mom!!"

At this time, there were many people surrounding a courtyard, and there were constant crying and wailing inside the courtyard, as if no one knew what was going on.

"Countryman, what happened?" Yuan Mu patted a villager on the shoulder and asked.

"Who are you? Why haven't I seen you before?" The villager looked at Yuan Mu and Director Jiang next to him very vigilantly.

The villager's voice attracted the attention of other villagers. They turned around and looked at the two of them with vigilance on their faces.

"Who are you? Are you the ones who killed Deputy Secretary Wang?"

"What's going on!" Just when Yuan Mu was about to explain, a man in his thirties wearing a liberation cap, carrying a semi-automatic rifle on his back, walked out of the yard.

"Captain Hu, we have never seen these two people before, and they suddenly appeared here!" said the villager next to him.

Captain Hu walked up to Yuan Mu and Director Jiang and looked them up and down.

"Who are you?"

"Comrade, I'm the Dean of Studies at Kyoto University of Political Science and Law. My name is Jiang Zhenjun. This time I'm here with my classmates for a training session. We're currently stationed on a piece of wasteland a few kilometers outside the village. I heard the gunshots and came over to take a look." Director Jiang took out his ID and stepped forward.

Captain Hu took the certificate, looked at it, nodded slowly, and then returned the certificate to Director Jiang.

"Ah, I know about this. The secretary told me about it before. Okay, this matter has nothing to do with you, so leave first!"

"Captain Hu, is there anyone dead in the yard?" Yuan Mu asked at this time.

"Who are you?" Captain Hu frowned and asked.

"I'm from the Criminal Investigation Corps of the Kyoto Railway Public Security Bureau. My name is Yuan Mu!" Yuan Mu took out his ID and handed it to the other party.

Upon hearing this, Captain Hu was stunned for a moment, then took the certificate and began to look at it.

"Oh, hello, Comrade Yuan Mu! My name is Hu Jun!" Captain Hu saluted Yuan Mu after reading the ID.

"Hello, Comrade Hu Jun!" Yuan Mu also returned the greeting.

"Can you tell me what happened in there?" Yuan Mu took the ID handed back by Captain Hu and put it in his pocket and continued to ask.

"No problem, then please follow me!" Captain Hu nodded and walked towards the yard.

As soon as he entered the yard, Yuan Mu smelled a bloody smell. There were two objects covered with white cloth on the ground in the yard. He guessed that they must be corpses.

"It's like this. After the gunshot, I rushed here with my men. The deceased were Deputy Secretary Wang of our commune and his lover. They were in the house at the time, but were moved outside by their families at this time." Captain Hu said.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Mu's brows immediately raised.

"Why move the body out without protecting the scene!"

"Comrade Yuan Mu, I also told them but they didn't listen, and the shooting didn't take place here but in Secretary Zhao's home. Secretary Zhao was shot to death, and they moved the deceased out in just a short while." Captain Hu also looked depressed.

In fact, he knew how to protect the scene. Although he was only a militia captain, he still knew these basic common sense, but sometimes he had no choice.

"Have you called the police?" Yuan Mu asked with a frown.

"The police have been called. I guess they should be here soon." Captain Hu nodded.

"Can I see the body?" Yuan Mu nodded.

"I'll go tell them." Captain Hu nodded and walked towards Deputy Secretary Wang's family.

"Comrade police! You must catch the murderer who killed my parents!" Captain Hu had just said a few words when a young man rushed to Yuan Mu and hugged Yuan Mu's legs, wailing.

"Comrade! Comrade! Can you please let me go and let me take a look at the deceased first?" Yuan Mu was speechless.

"Xiaotian! Xiaotian! Let him go first. Trust the police comrades. They will definitely catch the murderer who killed Deputy Secretary Wang!" Captain Hu also stepped forward and pulled the other party.

"Hurry up! Pull him away!" Captain Hu commanded the militiamen next to him.

"Yes!" Two militiamen with guns stepped forward and pulled Xiaotian away.

Yuan Mu finally got away, but his snot and tears were all on his pants. He didn't care about anything else and quickly squatted beside the corpse. He took out a pair of white gloves from the space and put them on, then lifted one of the white cloths.

Under the white cloth was a face that had begun to turn pale. It was estimated that the person had been dead for some time, probably in his forties. There were no wounds on his face or neck. Looking down, I saw an obvious bloody hole on his chest.

Yuan Mu carefully pulled the clothes of the deceased apart. The wound was a circular wound. He observed carefully and found that the murderer should have used a bayonet, similar to the bayonet on a bolt-action rifle.

The murderer must have rotated the knife after stabbing it, which eventually formed a circular wound and caused a lot of bleeding. Judging from the location of the injury, it is estimated that the victim's lungs have been damaged.
